Hi everyone,
A friend of mine recommended these boards. I'm currently living in the DFW area and have just been recently licensed. I'm planning on taking things slowly and would love to find a 225-250 sized dual sport to learn on. I figure a cheap used bike under $2k would do it since I'm sure to drop the thing at least once. I'm not a speed demon and like my skin so slow and steady wins the race in my book.
The MSF course was ok but found myself wishing that they added an extra day and taught out of the Proficient Motorcycling Book instead. What a useful read!
Gear wise, I am planning on equipping myself with a Tourmaster jacket pants gloves, and generally going the highlighter yellow route. I was a bicycle commuter (still am at times) and understand the invisibility of two wheeled transportation.
I hope everyone is doing great, ride safe.
Brad
